answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/04/2016 answer text The UK strongly supports the EU’s strategy for resolving the Ukraine crisis through diplomacy underpinned by sanctions pressure. Sanctions on Russia are an important way for the EU to support a peaceful resolution of the crisis through full implementation of the Minsk agreements. As the European Council made clear in March 2015, sanctions against Russia must remain in full until the Minsk agreements are fully implemented. answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 21/04/2016 15:16:08 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/04/2016 answer text <p>The Government takes all types of fraud, including those targeted at banks’ customers, extremely seriously.</p><p> </p><p>The Home Office is the lead Government department on crime, including fraud, and crime prevention overall. In February 2016, the Home Secretary announced a new Joint Fraud Taskforce. The Taskforce is a collaboration of banks, law enforcement and Government. This is the first time these organisations have come together to tackle fraud, and particularly to focus on those issues that have been considered too difficult for a single organisation to manage alone. The Taskforce seeks to identify the issues that will make the biggest difference to our collective fight against fraud.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 18/04/2016 14:04:46 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/12/2015 answer text <p>I am chairing a monthly meeting involving Network Rail, Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR), Southeastern and Transport Focus to monitor and co-ordinate improvements in both performance and passenger experience in the South East. This work builds upon the Joint Improvement Plan that was developed in the Spring. This Group is absolutely committed to see improvement and, crucially, to make sure that rail customers see the benefits of these improvements.</p><p>GTR failed to meet their benchmark for cancellations set out in their Franchise Agreement and in the view of the Secretary of State they are also likely to exceed their delay minutes benchmark in the near future. In order to address their poor performance and hold them to account we issued them with a Remedial Plan Notice that requires them to set out the measures they will take to improve their performance. GTR have submitted their plan and once the measures are agreed by the Secretary of State they will become contractually binding through a Remedial Agreement. Officials regularly monitor GTR’s performance and this will include the delivery of the measures and performance improvements agreed through the Remedial Plan. Non-compliance may result in further enforcement action in line with the Franchise Agreement should the need arise.</p><p>Network Rail’s performance is regulated by the Office of Rail and Road, who have recently agreed a £4.1m package of improvements to be delivered by Network Rail on the Southern part of GTR franchise area in order to address performance issues.</p><br /> <br /> answering member constituency Devizes answering member printed Claire Perry grouped question UIN 18742 18743 question first answered 10/12/2015 16:07:22 answering member 3974 label Biography information for Claire Perry
